  • This story is inspiring. I feel like there are a lot of people who wouldn't feel like it's within reach (no building/renovating skills or experience, or certain neighborhoods that maybe don't feel safe to a single woman for instance, and yeah schools as you mentioned if you're a parent or planning to be)—but for the people who can do that, it sounds like an absolutely phenomenal route to take.

  • I was struggling to find the right way to phrase the question, and I failed. I guess what I really wanted to know was: for a typical working class person, is a house at that price within reach? Or if you move there for the cheap houses and get a job, do you end up still barely able to afford the payments?

  • The phrase came originally from Wayne's World, which was first an SNL sketch, yeah. Bill & Ted aren't from SNL, though, and predate Wayne and Garth by a good bit. Bill & Ted said "party on," among other things, but not "party time, excellent." That's specifically the Wayne's World theme song iirc.

  • The things you're saying aren't necessarily untrue, but through a lot of the 20th century, immigrants and their children accounted for more than half of America's population growth. A lot of us aren't descended from the batshit OGs but from people who made perilous journeys in search of a better life, so goes the lore (and of course the people who were kidnapped and brought here in bondage). Your point stands, but there's a whole lot of different crazy here besides just settler crazy.

  • Backtracking five years later isn't strictly the same thing as lying. Five years is enough time to learn new information, and she's being upfront about the change. I'd be more concerned if she were saying right up until the election that she's going to ban fracking, then suddenly refused to do so as president.
